Where Are You?

I sit back observant
Let you know the relevant
Don't like it?
Tough shit.
Where are you?
Honestly, do you get it?
Good, don't talk it
Drop the games
Read some books
Get to know yourself
Explore your avenues
You know what to do
Thoughts build you
Words control this
World around you
Don't like it?
Change your words
Time is important
If the birds
Flew south
The last minute
They'd freeze!
Buuuurrrrr!
Right NOW
Is the new cool
Let it know
You are in control
Here to learn and grow
They can't teach you
Only you do
Habits make
Or break you
Never let a word
Describe you
A bird is a bird
But the one in my mind
Different colored
Stay focused
Like any other
Your bloods red
So don't be bothered
Beat by beat
Hearts ahead
That's where you're armored
No matter whats said
Even how awkward
Never be misled
You're only conquered
By thoughts you embed
Or those of others
You let get to your head
Hang with cripples
You'll limp til you're dead
Always noticing the ripples
Only negative you'll spread
Yeah, life isn't all giggles
But keep your head up instead
Soon you'll find it's riddles
As seasons shed
Change is a must
Because
There's balance in all said
And done with what was
So, refuse to be spoon fed
All insecurities have their buzz
Most overlook the buttered bread
Keeping their box guarded with fuzz
Never weigh em down with led
Just cause
They "believe" they know
They'll never adjust
Although
We're all made from stardust
That exploded billions of years ago
Awareness to most is just unjust
Maybe the truth is hard to swallow
Throwing a big ol fuss
Over mountain dew
Or mellow yellow
But life is true
You know?
Me and you
My family
And yours
We're all here
Wherever that is
Floating around
In an unknowing
Beautiful
Chaotic
Universe.
